Immigration History Research Center

http://www1.umn.edu/ihrc/index.htm

The Immigration History Research Center (IHRC), based at the University of Minnesota, collects and preserves material on American immigration and ethnic history. The IHRC collections are particularly strong on immigrants coming to the United States from eastern, central and southern Europe and the Near East in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Details of the research collections are available from the web site. This information is browsable by country of origin. As well as browsing for details of the collections it is possible to carry out searches using the University of Minnesota Library catalogue. The IHRC web site also outlines the aims of the organisation. There are details of events and projects taking place, contact and location information and details of publications. The site provides links to other US immigration web sites.
